Compact LX Valve Maintenance Trailer VMT, Gas
As the industry leader in valve maintenance systems, Wachs Utility Products offers a wide range of equipment designed to perform recommended or mandated procedures. A great starring point in an affordable valve maintenance program is Wachs Compact LX Trailer. This trailer includes the basic building block of a valve maintenance program, our class leading ERV-750 extended reach operator with a reach of 13 feet (3.96 meters) and a powerful 750 Ft/lbs. of torque.
Built to withstand the rigors of years of service, it is ideal for municipalities or contractors looking for an affordable, transportable and long lasting valve exercising trailer. Designed to carry our powerful ERV-750 (Extended Reach Valve) exerciser and Class II Hydraulic Power Unit, E.H. Wachs Compact LX is built to perform valve exercising where there is no need for vacuum excavation or power washout. It’s the perfect platform for your ERV-750 when you prefer a light trailer mount solution.
The complete trailer weighs less than 1400 lbs (635 kg), is only 63in wide (1600mm) and 105in long (2670mm) and is easily pulled with light duty vehicles. With its small footprint the Compact LX is ideal for narrow city streets and tight alleys, for fragile or forested landscapes or anywhere a large, heavy trailer or truck won’t fit.
Wachs Compact LX supports our industry exclusive VITALS software that uses “No Assumptions” logic in its programming. This class leading software, developed over the last three decades, has one goal in mind - to eliminate misdirection and over-torquing of valves during operation to prevent damaging or breaking them. Comprised of both mobile and desktop modules, VITALS allows you to set torque limits and record infrastructure details including location, valve-operating direction, and torque applied
